| From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]: | |
|
Shalem perfect, a place (probably the village of Salim) some 2 miles east of Jacob's well. There is an abundant supply of water, which may have been the reason for Jacob's settling at this place (Gen. 33:18-20). The Revised Version translates this word, and reads, "Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem," thus not regarding it as a proper name at all. | |
| From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]: | |
|
Shalem, same as Salem | |
